Ordered some eyepieces
Against what might have been a bit more convenient, I ordered some eyepieces from Harry Siebert (siebertoptics.com) instead of eyepieces from Meade or Televue for example. Televue eyepieces especially look like very high quality items but the price is high quality too (you can easily spend $300 or more on one eyepiece). Harry’s eyepieces are perhaps not as ‘pretty’ on the outside but the optics are known to be pretty good in general given their more reasonable price. I spoke to Harry personally a few times and each time, he was very helpful and very willing to listen to the features I was looking for. He clearly cares about customer satisfaction! I ordered a 36mm for wide-views, a 2x barlow, and a 15mm for close-ups, all 2 inches. I noticed a lot of posts on cloudynights.com regarding Siebert eyepieces and most people had a positive impressions of these eyepieces. I plan to post my impressions once I get these eyepieces.
